    I seriously want to tell them to F off... but I'm too far in. Especially with the literally $180 of games I just bought for them in the last month with NCAA 11, Fifa 11, and Reach.

    Penicillin will normally clear that right up if you catch it soon enough.

    yeah.. they send you a refurbished xbox of the same model.. instead of a newer re-designed one that doesnt suffer from the same problems.

    At least they do that. They could tell you to screw if they wanted.

    I would get yours replaced and trade it in a credit on the new model if I were you. Crappy that you will have to cover the difference, but it would be worth the piece of mind IMO.

    thats what I'm thinking of doing. Getting a new one while waiting. And then doing the trade in later. Or maybe selling on Ebay.

    I have both, but still play my 360 about ten-fold.

    I've only gotten a RROD once, and that was after owning it for a year. I've been good for over 2 years now with my current 360.

    Just see if you can get refunds for those games or sell all of your stuff on ebay. I'm just the opposite of Moo2k4, i only use my 360 for exclusives pretty much for fear of what just happened to you happening to me for like a fourth time.

    I bought the Xbox Elite for $70 on eBay without a harddrive. Do the same.
